"Cadillac" Jack Tenrec heads the Mechanics, a small group in City
in the Sea who retain the largely lost mechanical knowledge from
earlier human generations. Mechanics are essentially the "priests"
of the new order, holding secret knowledge. Tenrec is thus the
effective leader of The City in the Sea (known hundreds
of years earlier as New York City. See button #181).

Jack blames book knowledge for the ecological
disasters leading to earth's plight. This belief and his rigid
interpretation of natural law (allowing no living creature to
be killed) puts him in direct conflict with his own tribe's pragmatic
farmers (whose farmlands are trampled by shivats), and governor,
as well as dangerous poachers and the philosophically and culturally
differing Wassoon tribe (see button #180), represented
by Hannah Dundee (see button #178).An enigmatic,
flawed but still heroic figure, Jack's nickname comes from the
vintage '53 El Dorados he restores and modifies

This button series, designed by Ray
Fehrenbach, was among the items (including boxed candy bars)
created by Kitchen Sink Press itself shortly before it ended
its Wisconsin phase, moved to Massachusetts and merged with Tundra
Publishing.

1.25 inch diameter. $3.00

One note, for serious button collectors,
you may want to read the KSP
BUTTON TEXT which explains the numbering systems for
identifying the various buttons produced over the last 30 years,
or see the COMPLETE
KSP BUTTON LIST. The list is VERY long, so be patient
while it loads.
